The Effect of ACE Inhibition on the Pulmonary Vasculature in Combined Models of Chronic Hypoxia and Pulmonary Arterial Banding in Sprague Dawley Rats [PDF]

, 2010
Microfocal CT was used to image the pulmonary arterial (PA) tree in rodent models of pulmonary hypertension (PH). CT images were used to measure the arterial tree diameter along the main arterial trunk at several hydrostatic intravascular pressures and ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Diagnosis and management of eosinophilic asthma: a US perspective. [PDF]

, 2014
Eosinophilic asthma is now recognized as an important subphenotype of asthma based on the pattern of inflammatory cellular infiltrate in the airway. Eosinophilic asthma can be associated with increased asthma severity, atopy, late-onset disease, and ...

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Fisetin reduces ovalbumin-triggered airway remodeling by preventing phenotypic switching of airway smooth muscle cells

Respiratory Research
Background The transformation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) from a quiescent phenotype to a hypersecretory and hypercontractile phenotype is a defining feature of asthmatic airway remodeling.

Analysis of airway secretions in a model of sulfur dioxide induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) [PDF]

, 2006
Hypersecretion and chronic phlegm are major symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but animal models of COPD with a defined functional hypersecretion have not been established so far.

Monitoring airway remodeling in asthma

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, 2010
AbstractIntroduction:  Airway remodeling occurs in both mild and severe forms of asthma but, from a clinical point of view, airway remodeling in asthma is difficult to monitor.Objectives:  The objective of this overview is to make an inventory of which methods could be possible to monitor airway remodeling in asthma.Methods:  Access to airway tissue ...

Tracheal wash culture is not associated with bronchial infection, remodelling or inflammation in horses with asthma

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antimicrobials are commonly prescribed for the treatment of equine asthma, despite limited evidence supporting their use. Tracheal wash (TW) bacterial culture results are known to influence antimicrobial prescription decisions. Objectives To determine whether a positive TW bacterial culture in horses with asthma is associated with ...

Fungal immunomodulatory protein-fve could modulate airway remodel through by affect IL17 cytokine

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2018
Background: Asthma is one of the most common allergic diseases. Our previous studies have reported that FIP-fve in acute allergic mouse model can reduce inflammation, improve the balance of the Th1/Th2 system.

Expression of SMARCD1 interacts with age in association with asthma control on inhaled corticosteroid therapy. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundGlobal gene expression levels are known to be highly dependent upon gross demographic features including age, yet identification of age-related genomic indicators has yet to be comprehensively undertaken in a disease and treatment-specific ...
